Now behold the storm is brewing Leaving lands gone rack and ruin Above, below all ropes unhinged While you shall never reach the serpent gate
You try to find You stumble blind So far behind The path of stars
The ocean wide as black waves collide A genocide of proud upheaval What has risen once now exalts to dance Infatuating in the masque of evil
Though deeply scarred, we traveled far Blessed by grace and wrath For the blindness … And the kindness Of those who sharpened knifes behind our backs
Better watch yourselves!
Words and wind within our sails To new crusades in larger scales The course is set, the cause is black Take what you get, give nothing back
Dead inside, seeking lustres Of divine morning stars And poisoned fruit, alabaster… My quill to thrill the zombified
I have seen the daze go by I have scribed white lies In the gloom of the tomb Of the world’s lost saviour But still we stand Rich of contraband In our hearts and hand We grasped it though We’ve been licking shit To meet with gold amidst Slit the holy wrists As prey to bleed this sacrifice…
My poetry is suicide The key and seal of serpent gates Entwining with the songs we sang Of winter, mist and darkness…
Though deeply scarred, we’ll travel far Lest we steer our barque To the brightness… of a haven and a home Or the likeness and the crushing foam of cliffs and riffs
I’ve seen the daze go by I have scribed white lies In the gloom of the tomb Or the world’s lost saviour
But still we stand Rich of contraband In our hearts and hand We grasped it Enthralled by fierce hysteria We’re rushing fast As long as sight and stanzas shine From proud iconoclast
